welcome to my narrative...in bits and pieces

...all perception is valid...only accuracy is negotiable...however, personal realities tend to ignore the latter...the tale herein offers no exception...go ahead, accept the challenge...presume that whatever you read is true...then seek what might be true about it...regardless, illumination to purge the past remains paramount...kindness and mercy reign supreme on this venture outside my head...wtf simply begins the adventure...thank you...

Questions from a Mindful Friend

1. If female, how do you like for men to show their interest in you?

Pay attention, find common interests, ask thoughtful questions, offer kindness, demonstrate persistence.

2.  How might a man show interest in a female who happens to fit our culture's stereotypical image of attractive without perpetuating stereotypes that men are all just interested in women for their looks?

Presume nothing, accept any disinterest with respectful grace, anticipate worthwhile challenges; request her company, ask intelligent questions, discover her boundaries, suggest mutually enjoyable play (e.g., cinema, sport, dance, party).

3.  If female, do you like to know whether a man feels physically attracted to you?  At what point in getting to know him do you like to be assured of this?

Indeed. Whenever it occurs to him...provided that he not expect reciprocity but prepare assiduously for any delightful surprises {grin}.  (If not interested, I expect myself to decline appreciatively yet gently.)

Good hunting, Gentlemen!
